Answer:

Explanation:

Remark

I'm not sure I know what you intend for the slope. I will take it as 12/3 = 4

If that is the case then what you have so far is

Solution

y = 4x + b

The given point determines b

Givens

x = 3

y = 2

Given point

2 = 4*3 + b

2 = 12 + b

b = 2 - 12

b = -10

The equation is y = 4x - 10
